Feature: Hazardous-location readiness with IP66 and NEMA 4X enclosure. Business Impact: Maximizes uptime in oil & gas, chemical, and mining environments by withstanding moisture, dust, and corrosive atmospheres without compromising performance. Application: Pendant-mounted VMVL fixtures installed in harsh zones stay lit, reducing maintenance cycles and safety risks. Feature: High efficacy at 127 lm/W with 7000 lumens from a 61W driver. Business Impact: Delivers substantial energy savings and lower operating costs while maintaining bright, uniform illumination. Application: Ideal for retrofit HID replacements in process areas where immediate lumen output matters. Feature: Dimmable driver and wide voltage tolerance (100-277 Vac, 127-250 Vdc). Business Impact: Supports modern control schemes, enabling dimming schedules and demand-response strategies to reduce peak load. Application: Compatible with building management and industrial PLC-based lighting controls. Feature: Durable die-cast aluminum housing with diffused glass lens. Business Impact: Provides rugged, long-life performance with reduced maintenance in harsh environments. Application: Suitable for outdoor, wet, and dusty plant interiors. Feature: Pendant mounting with 3/4" trade size and no guard. Business Impact: Simplifies installation, allows flexible fixture spacing, and minimizes external obstruction risks. Application: Commonly used in high-ceiling areas where unobstructed light is essential. Feature: Compliance coverage across NEC/CEC, IECEx/ATEX, Zone 21, and IP66/NEMA 4X. Business Impact: Ensures regulatory alignment and risk reduction for projects in regulated facilities. Application: Suitable for certified hazardous-area deployments and new-build lines requiring strict standards adherence. Feature: Long-term lifecycle support and documentation (IF 1888 for driver replacement, spec sheets). Business Impact: Lowers total cost of ownership through planned maintenance and predictable parts replacement. Application: Facilities planning for downtimes and service windows.

FAQs

Plan for a pendant installation with a 3/4 inch trade size and ensure mounting aligns with Zone 21 and Class I, Division 2/Zone 2 requirements. Verify power feed compatibility (100-277 Vac, 127-250 Vdc) and integrate the dimmable driver with approved controllers. Use appropriate seals and gaskets to maintain IP66 integrity, and follow the IF 1888 instruction sheet for driver replacement to minimize downtime during maintenance.
The VMVL delivers 7000 lumens at 61W with a 127 lm/W efficiency, delivering HID-equivalent brightness at a fraction of energy. The high PF (>0.90) reduces wasted power, and the dimmable driver enables further energy savings through occupancy or time-based controls. This translates to lower operating costs and cooler facility environments compared with 175W HID systems.
This luminaire is certified for Hazardous/Classified Locations with NEC/CEC IECEx/ATEX standards, Zone 21 ratings, and NEMA 4X/IP66 protection. Detailed compliance information is available in Eaton’s specification sheets and installation literature, including the VMVL-7-2A-R1-UNV1-S891 PDF, and the VMVL LED spec guide forms provided by Eaton.
Yes, VMVL-7-2A-R1-UNV1-S891 is designed for retrofit and new installations in hazardous areas. It is pendant-mounted for flexible placement, compatible with 100-277 Vac / 127-250 Vdc inputs, and uses a diffused glass lens for uniform light distribution. The no-guard design simplifies retrofits where guards are not required, while still meeting IP66 and NEMA 4X protection.
Maintenance benefits include a long service life backed by a robust die-cast aluminum housing and diffused glass lens, with a driver replacement path documented in IF 1888. ROI is driven by energy savings (61W vs HID), higher efficacy (127 lm/W), and reduced downtime due to fewer ballast failures, with dependable performance in hazardous environments supporting uptime and safety goals.
